Later that Monday morning I felt uncomfortable about going to work and seeing David after what happened on Friday, how am I supposed to look at him and pretend that nothing ever happened, I couldn't miss work so I had no choice but to go.

                            *
For the past couple of hours I kept looking out for him and avoiding him if I saw him from a distance, destructed by a phone call I received from home I hardly noticed him walking in heading towards me, he was as fast as a lightning bolt and everything froze at that time the moment he he stood in front of me.

"hi"
He said cheerfully and he's expression showed nothing but a happy man who's care free, like nothing ever happened between us , how is he taking this lightly? Or maybe I'm the one who's just been dramatic over nothing.

"hi"
As hard as it was for me to say it, it felt like a hard peel to swallow and no kidding here eventually this was going to happen, it's not like I was going to avoid him the whole time.

"hi" I said as I proceeded with my work.

"why do I feel like you're avoiding me?"

"you're asking me that? Dude we kissed and you expect me to be okay with it?"

"what's wrong with that, it's not like we had sex or something"

Everything he said  made no sense at all and I was trying so hard not to unravel.
He moved a step closer and sat on my desk and my mind was focused on what people were going to say when they saw this,

"David get up, you're making a scene"

"let them watch, I'm doing nothing wrong for all I know"
Clearly we are different he doesn't let the little things get to him and obviously he doesn't care what people think or say about his actions and I on the other hand can be shaken so easily, I'm still surprised by his reaction towards what happened between us, it's so like me to step out of my boundaries.

"look" he said as his brown eyes pierced right in my eyes

"I meant what I said to you that night and honestly I don't regret kissing you, I'm sincerely sorry that I put you in this situation and as hard as it would be for me, I will try not to let it happen again"

His apology sounded so sincere and genuine but I was still putting my guards up, anything could happen and I would have no one to blame but me.

One thing I love about us is that we easily connect despite our disagreements, we put all the drama in the past and I'm glad to say we're both on the same page.... At least that's what I thought, I left the office very late and I was so tired I just wanted to relax in my hot tub and drink wine and ease the stress.
I was so surprised to see David standing on my doorstep and my only thought was not to let him in. He's like a toxic drug, despite knowing the harm it would do to you you'll still want to take it if it was right in front of you.

I stepped out of my car, and promptly walked to him, and my face showed nothing but eagerness, annoyance and excitement all at the same time.
"hi, what are you doing here?"

"I wanted to drop these off, I might not be around for a couple of days so I thought of leaving them with you."

"you didn't tell me this at the office, some new projects came up?"

For a while he hesitated, I thought it was serious but didn't think it  too much about it,his expression changed and I wasn't prepared for what he said next.
